Hi all!
Before I start, I will post some pictures later this weekend
As I told you before, I borrowed a calibrated temperature meter this weekend. I rushed home from work and started immediately. I only measured the highest temp since when the shot is going, the controller is out of the game. Previous measurments done by others proved that Silvia keeps the temperature during the shot is a good way.
I put the probe in the filter basket a la Schomer, but without the coffee...
Ok, here we go!
Setting (C):____Max Measured Temp (C):
102,8___________93,7
102_____________92,9
100_____________92,3
99______________91,8
98______________91,2
96,8____________90,6
95______________88,9
103_____________92,3
103_____________92,4
104,1___________94,3
104_____________94,9
104_____________95,3
While doing the tests above I didn't remove the porta filter. My goal was to find the water temperature coming out from the machine.
In the next series of measurements I removed the porta filter between each test to simulate the "grind and tamp" procedure before I put it back. This is a good way to see if a "cold" filter affects the outcoming water temperature.
